Democratizing the Rule of Law

Abstract

Year in and year out, Americans face a mountain of unmet civil legal needs. To combat this access-to-justice crisis, the Utah court system has introduced a number of changes. These changes cover the spectrum, from common improvements like making standardized forms available online, to pioneering advancements, such as introducing a legal regulatory sandbox. In this Article, we explore many of the reforms that the Utah courts have embraced, their underlying rationales, and the pushback the reforms have faced.
